I do wonder if they'll have the Flyers game on or a replay of a soccer game. I've been in there on a Monday night during american football season and not able to watch it due to the televisions showing day old replays of a soccer match I watched the afternoon before.

Ahh, well, good to know. I love soccer and all, but will be with others who want to see the hockey game tonight.

wait - is that spam being served with radishes and jello on noodles with some parsley???

mmmmmmmmmmmmm.....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!

wtf? proves the point that the further back in time you go, the dumber people were.

if monday dinner was spam/radish/jello/noodle/garnish night, what the hell was for dinner on tuesday??? rat poop and pencil erasers??

ps: if thats whats for dinner, why spend all that time carving the radishes???
i cant stop looking at it, every time i glance back i notice something more aweful
if my mom had put that on my dinner table, i would have punched her

pps: sorry, now i realize that is lunch, not dinner as i ranted above. thats fine then.

But what I need to know is where to go, watch the Flyers game, and eat something. Help! Dark Horse or Irish Times?

I am all for promoting a place that you love.... but I can't remember how many times a new member registered and made their first AND ONLY post a glowing review of The Irish Times. Its just so blatant as to be counterproductive. It makes me NOT want to try a place....

Let your food, drinks, service and character speak for itself. Pay for advertising, and hope that the above elements result in word of mouth.

And I am open to other suggestions in the neighborhood.

It's hard to recommend a good place for both dinner and the Flyers game. I often feel like we are missing a really good and lively bar with above average food.

I say dinner at Southwark or Irish Times; beers and Flyers at O'neal's if you can handle the weekend crowd. They usually have a good Flyers environment for the games.
